Oil filler tube with screw on cap

[Jerry G.]

I am having problems with pressure build up in the crankcase on my vintage road race motor. Its a Fuel injected(Rochester) motor. I think the problem comes from prolonged RPMs over 6500. I don't plan to change that but I do need an oil filler tube for the front of the intake adaptor that has a real screw on cap. The stock one for a 65FI car works itself off and needs to be retained with a tension spring. It's a new cap and tube so it's not worn. I don't car if its stock or not just that I can screw it on and keep it from working loose. Any suggestions?? In a related problem the dip stick also pops out of it's tube ( not all the way) and looses the seal and blows oil around. It is also retained with a spring. Any clever ideas on this one? Jerry

What do you have for a crankcase breather system?

Two AN-12 lines running from the valve cover tops to a vented collector.
